Are you using the CD/download or online TurboTax? With the CD/download you can prepare and e-file up to five federal returns---even more if the extra ones are mailed.
With online TurboTax you pay for each return and each user needs their own account and user ID. If you use the same account and user ID for more than one return, the second one overwrites the first one and it is lost forever.
